This car is every thing Jim Ferron said it was...a solid survivor with no rust issues. Good example of a quality transaction with another SYC member

This is what it looked like when I got it form Jim.

Post the info on the other broadcast sheet. You never know, the car may be around.

**WILMASBOYL78** · #23 02-01-2009, 02:36 AM

It wasn't much...just a plain jane L78, bench seat 4 spd

ok, not really...seq:366 04/16/69 11427 WRN 3624x3 (rust mark on the 5th digit) 731 40 40

nothing entered in any of the other boxes...strange

I can see how they made the mistake...same black plain jane interior. So, somewhere another Nova is running around with the bottom half of a back seat meant for this car..

So Tom, What are you going to do with yet ANOTHER nova. A six in a row mind you? You going to wrap this car up in another one of those sleeping bags?

I have a job Tommy.......minding your business! Karen told me to watch out for you lately.

Nobody can buy any of those zip lock sleeping bags for their cars cause you snatch them as quick as they make em! Have a nice SuperBowl day today Tom. Make sure you visit the cars and re tuck them in till Spring!

P.S. See you down Benny's for dinner some time.

Update on the Granny Project:

Man is thing solid..!!! Took out the front seat and rubber floor mats tonite....only one word "MINT". My guy Tim has removed the rear bumper, tail lights and the b/s moldings. Only have the front fender Nova emblems to go and few other little items...he said it is a pleasure to work on a car where you don't need a 1/2" drive air ratchet to take it apart. The rear bumper bolts came off with a 1/4" air ratchet

seat belt bolts were effortless

if anyone needs any photos of original stuff for resto let me know...this car is the perfect benchmark for that info.

Tim at work..
